It is found that when PESA is used alone, it had good corrosion inhibition. So, PESA should be included in the category of corrosion inhibitors. It is not only a kind of green scale inhibitor, but also a green corrosion inhibitor. The synergistic effect between PESA and Zn2+ or sodium gluconate is poor. However, the synergistic effect among PESA, Zn2+ and sodium gluconate is excellent, and the corrosion inhibition efficiency for carbon steel is higher than 99%. Further study of corrosion inhibition mechanism reveals that corrosion inhibition of PESA is not affected by carboxyl group, but by the oxygen atom inserted. The existence of oxygen atom in PESA molecular structure makes it easy to form stable chelate with pentacyclic structure.展开更多

The results show that PESA can effectively prevent the growth of CaSO4 scale at 323-343 K. At the same temperature, the binding energy between PESA and the (001) face of CaSO4 for systems with various number of H2O has the order of E-bind(OH2O)〉Ebind(200-400H2O)〉E, bind(lOOH2O). For the same system at different temperatures the binding energies are close and are mainly contributed from the Coulomb interaction, including ionic bonds. The bonds are formed between the calcium atoms of anhydrite scale crystal and the Hydrogen bonds are formed between the O oxygen atoms of the carboxyl group of PESA. atoms of the carboxyl group of PESA and the H atoms of H2O. van der Waals interaction is conducive to the stability of the system of PESA, H2O, and CaSO4. The radial distribution functions of O(carbonyl of PESA)-H(H2O), O(CaSO4)-H(H2O), and O(CaSO4)-H(PESA) imply that solvents have effects on the anti-scale performance of PESA to CaSO4.展开更多
